teh-omitmaycionclem.' MBe. it 4known that I, l\T.l.\.i\Ic1V(`;rooD1I .InNL NINGS, a citizen of the United States, residfing at Appomattox, in the county o Appomattox and State of Virginia, have invented new and: useful `Improvements in Beaters and Mixers, of which the following is a specification. Y A p The invention relates-*to kitchen utensils and has for an object to provide abeating and mixing device. f y. 1 c. Y

The. invention embodies, among other fea-l tures, a device moreparticurlarly` adapted for use in beating andV mixing food products, the device being conveniently adapted vfor beating and mixing eggs. .1 a In the further disclosure of the invention reference' is to befhad to the accompanying drawings, in which similar characters of reference denote corresponding parts in all theviews, and in which: Figure lis alpersp'ective view oi:l my device showing the same in.V applied position; Fig. 2is a vertical `sectional view showing the interior construction and the manner of supporting the device; Fig. 3 is a horizontal transverse` sectional view taken on the line 3 3 in Fig; `2; and Fig. 1 is a horizontal transverse sectional view taken on the line 4.-4 in Fig. 2:' A A Referring more particularly to the views, I employ a supportingframe10,*terminating at one end in a depending member 11 adapted for reception in a socket 12 formed with 'the walls 4of a container. 13, a bracket 14 being rigidly secured or formed with the container 13 adjacent the under sidethereof and having a laterallyextending member 15 spaced from the under side of the container for the purpose of rigidly securingthe container to a table top or the like, a thumb screw 16 having threaded connection with the member 15 and adapted to engage the under side of the table top to rigidly secure the container thereto, a thumb screw 17 being mounted to extend through a wall of the socket 12 formed with the container 13, with an end of the thumb screw adapted to engage the member 11 of the frame 10 to rigidly secure the supporting Jframe 10 to the container 13.

The supporting frame 10 has formed therewith a sleeve like vertically extending member 18 arranged in the vertical plane of the container 10 and above the same, a rod 19 being mounted to slidably extend through YSpecific-:ation of Letters Patent. i i Patented Sept. 16,1913. Appncatioameuulyz,1ei2; `serial Np. 707,343.

the sleeve-like member 18 and into the container 13'a seat- 20 being preferably formed rin the bottom of the container to receive the .lower end of the rod 19thus retainingthe same in rigid position within the container.

j A stud 21 is mounted to project from the sleeve-likemember 18 land mounted to turn on-thestud 21 is a toothed wheel 22, provided with asuitable handle 23, the mentioned toothed wheel being adapted to mesh with a toothedwheel 24 keyed to the upper end of the rod 19, the said toothed wheel, 22 being also adapted to mesh with a toothed Vwheel 25 keyed to a* frame 26 revolubly mounted onmthe rod 19, a collar 27 being mounted onvthe rod 19to support the frame 26j in revoluble position thereon as shown in Fig. 2, it being readily understood that when the 'wheel 22 is rotated, the rod 19 will be operated in one ldirection and the frame 26 in the opposite direction, the frame 26 being of an inverted U-shape so that the said iframe will revolve `around the rod 19, within the container 13 when the wheel 22 is operated. Y Y

j A series of horizontally extending blades 28 are arranged to project laterally from the rod 19, the said blades being revoluble -with the rod and equi-distantly spaced apart as shown, the mentioned blades consisting more substantially ofvertical body portions29 and horizontal `ends 30, each blade being twisted at its medial portion 31 and each blade being formed of a single piece of material such as stamped metal, the medial portion of each blade being twisted as mentioned, so that each blade will present a side portion and an end portion.

Mounted to project inwardly from the frame 26 are a series of blades 32, similar to the blades 28 and arranged to extend in opposite direct-ions to the blades 28, the mentioned blades 32 being mounted on the frame 26 to operate between the blades 28 as shown, the ends of the blades 32 being, however, spaced from the rod 19 and the blades 28, the blades 32 at the points where they join with the frame 26, being vertical and at their extremities horizontal, the said blades being twisted at their medial portions and constructed substantially the same as the blades 28 on the rod 19.

In the use of my device, the container 13 is first rigidly secured to a table top by means of the clamping member 15 including the thumb screw 16, and the product to be beaten or mixed is placed Within. thev Container 13, after WhiQh-theihaeilleiis.. i grasped and the W eel 22 is rotated, thiis', through the medium of the toothed,Wheelil 24, operating the rod 19 and consequently ,ihetbladestin one; dretionizwt-hn: the
